• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

No but it would be amazing if someone did that. I almost got a tattoo of parachute wings in the army but never bothered going through with it.

I have a painter friend who takes years producing intricate fantasy paintings, which often have Escher style tessellation features, tricks with infinity and bizarre stairways. To make some money to keep him going, he also designs tattoo flash for the local studios - generic designs, as well as one-off commissions.
